I used to kayak to an island off the coast and camp out with my boys, had some kooky times.
Plenty of fishing and hunting if that's your thing
Surfing is very popular on the east coast
But aside from one off things like that I do agree, everything is overdeveloped and it's hot as balls anywhere inland. Mosquitoes and other parasites (boomers, new yorkers, junkies, puerto ricans) are a problem year round.
>>2494176>south of lake okeechobeeBarring the everglades your options are Fort Myers/Cape Coral and the Miami metro area. So absolutely nothing unless you have a boat. You'd have to look North towards Ocala and Gainesville. Alternatively I found Myakka River State Park in Sarasota to be a nice spot with some dispersed camping. That's a nice option that's not too far off from you.
